When I click the homepage specials checkbox on a product it puts that product on the homepage, it puts all the products on the homepage in alphabetical order, can this be changed to any order I like?

16. Homepage Special
Use this checkbox to indicate that this is a homepage special. Homepage specials appear on the homepage of your store (index.asp).

I beleive this is guided by the site wide product sort settings, defaults to sort order then alphabetical, change the sort order on the product and it will change it site wide, not just on the home page.

That's correct! That order is established in your primary and secondary sort keys in the site information > site wide settings menu.

I assume there is no way to set a different sort for the Home Page? If not, this would be a nice enhancement.

You are correct. However, you could make your front page specials using HTML, and you could even create buy buttons with remote cart scripting. It wouldn't be automatic, but you would be able to make the look and feel of your home page change to whatever you please if you did it in this way. You would change the Site HTML > Message editor and Site HTML > News editor to do this.

In case you are not familiar with remote cart scripting, an article about it is located here.
